Guest Blog
Blogs written by a third-party organization or individual for a website on a specific topic. Guest blogs usually come with the expectation that the writer’s organization is linked and/or mentioned within the article or author biography. This provides a passive benefit for the writer to promote their efforts elsewhere, while also providing relevant information for the site’s readers.
Depending on the policies of the publishing site, the blogs may be subject to editorial review.

Lifetime Value (LTV)
Lifetime Value (LTV) is a calculation of how much a new customer will be worth to your company over their entire lifetime.
This calculation can alter other calculations, such as the acceptable cost of acquiring a new customer. The initial value of that customer may be too low to justify a particular cost, but their LTV could justify the advertising cost to acquire them.
